Some issues now?

Has something just happened in the past 10 minutes? I noticed I received a PM that was over 254 weeks old, my Fav Forums show no topics, and it seems my colour scheme has reset to default across all forums--F**K THE NHL. Go Blue Jays 2013!!!

Does anyone else have up at the top dozens of IMs both Site IMs, ones from members sent MANY years ago, ones from folks I have no knowledge of who have sent a bunch of IMs, also some that are from blocked members. Why are the latter NEVER purged? I always read Site IMs....did site send IMs to everybody as part of this?

Of course, I also don't have my theme colors, have no mini-bar, and lost some I See People Settings.

Can I post my screenshots now? I was trying to do that when the problem first started and the site said the images were 100% uploaded but then when I would click Preview again, I would get 504 and then 500 errors.

Edit: I now have a mini bar but it is in the wrong location and it does not have my icons and has strange icons...I have never had "favorites" because I don't have favorites and never had updated posts either. I have All posts instead on minibar. LOL

At least the site up and working! --When governments fear people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. Thomas Jefferson

Im still getting IM issues, but the other glitches related to this bug can be fixed in the settings. The problem for me was the last time I changed how DSLR looked for me was in 2006 or 2007 and I couldn't remember how to set them again. After about two hours messing with it, I got it back to about 90% of how it was before the site caught the flu.--Para Bellum!!

I can't remember either. But I stumbled around and got most everything back except how, after I add an icon to the minibar, do I add the link? I found my icon that I use for my home page »/postlist. But how do I add that so when I click on it I am taken there?

I am sure glad to have my Canadian theme back!

But I wish those IMs at the top would disappear.--When governments fear people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. Thomas Jefferson

One other thing I noticed was when posting in an area I always post in, it's asking me if I've gone over the rules before allowing me to create a post. Doesn't matter how many times I go through the motions, it still asks every time.

All of this seems to indicate an issue with our saved settings/preferences as well a cookie issue?

Edit: Of course now that I've posted it out loud, it's no longer doing it >.>

Well, I fixed it all except for the IMs ..at the top of every page going back 7-8 years! and I can't figure out how to put the link in for minibar icon for postlist/all. It is driving me nuts because I use that link constantly here to navigate the site. But everything else that was messed up I got fixed.--When governments fear people, there is liberty.

I thought you didn't drink. Or is the site meltdown so bad you're reaching for the small bottles of scotch?

There is no truth to the rumour that Fatness drinks anti-freeze and follows up with the required Vodka gallon chaser (to prevent kidney damage).--Ain't nuthin but the blues! "Albert Collins".Leave your troubles at the door! "Pepe Peregil" De Sevilla. Just Don't Wifi without WPA, "Yul Brenner"

Do you have the minibar on your dslreports web page? Does it have the little green + icon. Go to the page you want to put in minibar so that the URL is what you want to save. Then press that + icon and just follow your instincts to add a " updated posts " icon.--A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasury.

I don't know how to fix my fav forums, the forums are listed but no threads appear..

On the menu bar at top of all dslreports pages, click on "Forums"; then on the next menu bar below click on "Your Forums"; then on the next menu line down click on "slow". That did it for me.--A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasury.
